Chapter 40. State test cloudy (medium).

When Zhan San learned from Lu Jun that the person who wrote those stories turned out to be Xie Yuan Xiao Mo, the youngest in Yunzhou in the past hundred years, he couldn't help but be stunned. (Full text novel reading as much as possible on the Picking Up Landing Literature Network)/|\bubble 'book'()Update super fast/|\

Zhan San didn't expect that the person who wrote these stories would be a famous reader.

For those scholars who are determined to take the imperial examination, it is impossible to follow these sideways, firstly, they disdain it, and secondly, the blow to their reputation after it spreads out is also great.

But in the same way, Xiao Mo's identity has also brought a lot of trouble to Zhan San, if it is an ordinary person, Zhan San will not hesitate at all, whether he is willing to directly "invite" to Deyang City, but Xiao Mo is a Xie Yuan.

Although there is only one Yunzhou, there will be four new science and technology Xie Yuan every year, which is not a big man for the Zhan family, but Xiao Mo, as the youngest Xie Yuan in Yunzhou for more than 60 years, has already spread the name of genius all over Yunzhou, and even has a number in the history of assassination, but the Zhan family does not dare to act rashly about it.

After repeatedly confirming the correctness of the news, Zhan San returned to the inn with a group of entourage, thinking about it alone.

This task, from Zhan Ting, the steward of the Prime Minister's Mansion, to Zhan Yue, the head of the Zhan family, to Zhan San, who came here, were all confused, and they didn't know why, and they didn't understand the purpose, nature, and importance of this mission at all.

And because of this, they dare not slack off on this task.

In fact, they didn't know that the cause of the incident was just that the scholars around Zhang Yansheng wanted to curry favor with Zhang Yansheng, and even Zhang Yansheng himself didn't know.

At this time, Zhan San did not dare to force "please" because of Xiao Mo's identity; Because of Zhan Yue's repeated advice, he kept a low profile and could not be publicized, and he did not dare to take the liberty of visiting Xiao Mo.

If Xiao Mo refuses the invitation, will he be alarmed and delay the third son's major event?

Therefore, Zhan San is now quite in a dilemma.

"Three stewards, why don't we go directly to visit that Xiao Mo? Or maybe he'll agree to our invitation......"

An attendant saw that Zhan San was distressed and said a word.

"Nope." Zhan San frowned, knocked his fingers on the table one by one, and said slowly: "The third prince's order this time is very strange, we don't know what it is, and the head of the family has emphasized that we must be more hidden, maybe the matter is important." If he ventures to go, then Xiao Mo agrees to our invitation, and if he refuses, we can't force the invitation in his capacity, and as a result, we will be startled, and maybe it will ruin the big thing of the third son. ”

"That'...... Let's return to Deyang City first, report the matter to the head of the family in detail, and let the head of the family decide? ”

The retinue built a yì road.

After thinking for a while, Zhan San nodded slowly and said: "I'm afraid it can only be like this, but we can't just go back empty-handed, a few of you can find a way to buy off the little officials who manage people's livelihood materials in the Yamen of Shanxian County, and copy all the information about Xiao Mo and Xiao Mo's family, and we will go back and hand it over to the family master, which can be regarded as an explanation." ”

Hearing Zhan San's decision, the entourage nodded, and then hurried away.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ten days later, Zhan San returned to the Zhan Mansion in Deyang City, and although he did not bring back Xiao Mo, he handed over all the detailed information about Xiao Mo to the head of the family, Zhan Yue.

I have to say that this time the Zhan family's action is quite a bit like a blind cat encountering a dead mouse.

If the Zhan family or the Prime Minister's Mansion were to inquire about Xiao Mo's information through official channels, then all they could get were some well-known things, such as Xiao Mo's family, age, residence, fame, etc., because under the arrangement of Songshan Academy, unless the time had come, other information would not be known even to Liu Zongsheng, the county commander of Shanxian County.

After all, even if Liu Zongsheng, the county commander of Shanxian County, wanted to check Xiao Mo's information, he still needed to get the consent of the chief bookkeeper Guo Ping, and go to the master around Guò to retrieve it. What's more, all kinds of hidden information are attached to Xiao Shenyan's files, which have nothing to do with Xiao Mo's information, and rarely attract the attention of others.

But Zhan San was a small official in the yamen who privately confiscated the information, so in addition to the official materials, the Zhan family also obtained the unknown information such as Xiao Mo, Xiao Shenyan and others, Xiao Shenyan's remarks on changing his name, etc.

Looking at Xiao Mo's information, Zhan Yue also had a headache, he didn't know what to do, and he complained a little bit about his second brother Zhan Ting, if he could explain Zhang Yansheng's order more clearly in the letter, he would not let him fall into such a dilemma now, I don't know what to do, that is, I am afraid of offending Xiao Mo, and I am afraid of startling the snake.

wanted to send a letter to Zhan Ting again, but he was afraid of giving Zhang Yansheng the impression that he was ineffective.

"Xiao Mo, Xiao Shenyan, Xiao Yi...... I think I've heard these names there......"

Looking at Xiao Mo's information, Zhan Yue muttered to himself.

After Xiao Mo obtained the fame of Xie Yuan before, Zhan Yue had this inexplicable sense of familiarity, but there were countless people with the same name and surname in the world, so Zhan Yue didn't care.

It's just that after associating the name Xiao Mo with Xiao Shenyan, the name of his grandfather Xiao Nianzu before he changed his name, this sense of familiarity has become stronger and stronger.

Carefully examining all kinds of information about Xiao Mo and Xiao Shenyan, from the year of the move, to the place of residence before the move, etc., suddenly, Zhan Yue seemed to think of something, his body shook, and he quickly turned around, turned out all the orders given to him by the Prime Minister's Mansion in the past two years, and checked them one by one.

Finally, Zhan Yue found something, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Xiao Mo and Xiao Shenyan, the two people who disappeared in the Xiao family's case turned out to have come to Shanxian County."

It turned out that since the end of the Xiao family's case, Mr. Wen, who presided over the Xiao family's case, had doubts about the sudden disappearance of Xiao Mo and Xiao Shenyan, after all, although outsiders didn't know, the Xiao family was used by the prime minister twice in a row, the first time made Xiao Shenyan blocked the imperial examination from then on, and the second time it made them almost ruined, and they will inevitably have resentment towards the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Of course, Mr. Wen didn't pay attention to the Xiao family, but the two most important clansmen of the Xiao family suddenly disappeared and still disappeared after the Xiao family's case ended, which made him wonder, and just in case, he ordered the forces of the Prime Minister's Mansion in the northern states to pay attention to the whereabouts of these two people.

And afterwards, even Mr. Wen didn't take it to heart anymore.

And because Mr. Wen did not give the death order, to the people in the Prime Minister's mansion, Xiao Mo and Xiao Shenyan were just small people, so even Zhan Yue gradually forgot this order over time.

But now the situation is different, Zhan Yue didn't expect that Xiao Mo would be incognito in Shanxian County for so many years, and he also gained the fame of Yuan Gong, and his reputation was famous, and he might even enter the imperial court in the future!!

Strangle a qiē hidden danger, no matter how big or small it is!!

This is Zhang Qian's code of conduct, and it is also Zhang Qian's basic requirement for his subordinates.

Zhang Qian will never forget how he entered the imperial court back then and brought down the powerful man who was once extremely powerful to him, no matter how small the hidden danger is, if it is allowed to unfold, it will be extremely terrible in the future.

After thinking for a while, Zhan Yue wrote a letter, and then called the housekeeper and asked him to pass the letter to the city of Changzhi of Huanzhou and hand it over to the head of the Prime Minister's Mansion there.
